HIGH 7.5

Zebra zebrad 6.4.0 before 7.0.0 Denial of Service via Mempool Coinbase-Maturity Check

CVSS Score
7.5
EPSS Score
0.0%
EPSS Percentile
0th

Zebra zebrad 6.4.0 before 7.0.0 performs quadratic work in the mempool coinbase-maturity check because Transaction::coinbase_spend_restriction() rebuilds the transaction's output list once per spent outpoint. Any connected peer can repeatedly send unsigned transactions with many transparent inputs and outputs, which are rejected without a misbehavior score, to pin verification threads.
